Boutique hotel Southside by Ovolo has undergone an interior transformation, launching a new restaurant, themed rooms and more.
Located in the district of Wong Chuk Hang on the south side of Hong Kong, Southside by Ovolo opened in 2014. At the time, it marked one of the first warehouse-to-hotel conversions on the island.
Having undergone a recent transformation, the property now offers Rock Star Suites which pay homage to musicians such as Freddie Mercury and John Lennon. These suites provide views over the surrounding beaches and mountains and feature a built-in bar and custom artworks.
Other themed rooms include B.Duck, a novelty character well known in Hong Kong inspired by the 1992 capsizing of a cargo ship containing more than 29,000 plastic ducks. The B.Duck room at Southside by Ovolo comes with a play tent and other branded entertainment for children.
The relaunch of the hotel also sees the introduction of premium steakhouse Flat Iron Deluxe, which alongside its lunch and dinner menu offers a kid’s menu, serves weekend brunches and hosts cooking classes among other things.
Additional amenities include the new Wonder Bar in the lounge, numerous meeting and event spaces, a gym, a rooftop and outdoor event space The Terrace. The reception has also been moved to the third floor.
